The American Club is pleased to present, Transport Guidance for Steel Cargoes, which addresses the carriage and shipment of steel cargoes by sea. This guidance draws upon the knowledge and experience that the American Club has derived from its own claims, from those who are engaged in the operation and/or chartering of vessels for the carriage of steel cargoes, and from surveyors regularly instructed to attend steel cargo loadings and discharges.

Hard copies of Transport Guidance for Steel Cargoes can be obtained from the Club Managers free of charge for Members by contacting Ms. Danielle Centeno, Assistant Vice President – Loss Prevention & Survey Compliance, at [email protected] or Dr. William Moore, Senior Vice President – Loss Prevention, at [email protected].
